The proposed, approval-dependent framework would support qualified Harmony ONE-linked liquidity providers and applications considering verified markets on Lithosphere.
Seattle, Washington Oct 15, 2026 (Issuewire.com) - Ignite DEX, part of the Lithosphere ecosystem, has outlined a proposed liquidity incentive program of up to US$300 million aimed at qualified participants with experience in Harmony ONE-based decentralized finance. The framework is intended to provide a potential route for liquidity providers, projects, and users exploring additional markets on Lithosphere. The figure is a proposed maximum program envelope, not funding already approved, deposited, or made available to participants.
Under the proposal, incentives would be considered for eligible liquidity providers supporting verified markets on Ignite DEX. Any program launch would depend on treasury approval, applicable governance and legal review, technical readiness, and published operating rules. No specific pool, project, user, or asset is guaranteed an allocation, listing, or incentive.
The proposal is designed around continuity of participation rather than requiring Harmony ONE users to abandon existing positions. Interested projects and liquidity providers could be assessed for supported asset provenance, smart contract integrity, safe cross-chain routing where applicable, and sufficient market depth. Harmony ONE-linked assets would not become tradable on Ignite merely by being named as potential candidates.
Potential incentive mechanisms include time-limited fee rebates and liquidity-provider rewards with predefined caps, transparent eligibility standards, and controls against artificial trading volume or self-dealing. The final program, if authorized, would need to specify approved markets, reward calculations, treasury limits, claim schedules, and conditions for pausing or ending incentives.
The proposed initiative follows Lithosphere's October 13 public mainnet activation, which moved the AI-native Layer 1 network into production operation. Ignite DEX is being developed as a decentralized market access layer for the broader ecosystem, with an emphasis on connecting markets and applications through infrastructure that can support cross-chain activity. Any Harmony ONE-related routes or markets would remain subject to separate technical validation and liquidity requirements.
A central consideration is the difference between opening a new trading opportunity and resolving historical asset losses or liquidity constraints. This proposal does not constitute an asset recovery, reimbursement, or redemption program. Cross-chain assets and liquidity positions can carry bridge, smart contract, slippage, custody, and market risks, and participation would not guarantee returns or preservation of capital.
If the initiative proceeds, Ignite would publish an application process and market-specific requirements before accepting eligible providers into any incentive phase. The objective is to evaluate whether transparent, risk-controlled incentives could help build sustainable liquidity and practical market access for communities seeking additional DeFi options across networks.

Hands shot up in a Hong Kong Primary Two classroom as pupils debated what their digital pet needed more, meal vouchers or the latest game cards. Their teacher at SKH Kei Oi Primary School in Sham Shui Po had created the virtual pet using artificial intelligence (AI) and web tools for a lesson on saving and budgeting. With each spending decision, the pet’s mood and savings changed on screen, helping pupils discover the consequences of careless spending. Such lessons are becoming more common...
Seventy-something Hong Kong retiree Leung Ching says a meal for four in Shenzhen, the megacity in mainland China roughly an hour’s train ride away, that cost just over 300 yuan (US$45) a few years ago now runs to 500 to 600 yuan. It would cost around HK$1,000 (US$127.50) in Hong Kong, but only 300 yuan in Guangzhou and just 200 yuan in Zhongshan, two cities within two hours of Hong Kong. “Shenzhen is becoming less and less affordable,” said Leung, a retired vendor. Last year, consumer prices in...

After alleging that noncitizens are registered to vote in L.A.

Even as Hong Kong remains the world’s least affordable housing market, many buyers still shun heavily discounted homes linked to an “unnatural death”, such as murder or suicide, according to property agents. Prices for such properties could fall by as much as 50 per cent, while rents were typically about 20 per cent below market rates, they added. The aversion stands in stark contrast to parts of Europe, particularly in France, where buyers are often willing to purchase homes under a “vente en...
